Statistic data on serious accidents show that the majority of accidents (63%) happen while children play, especially at home and less outside i.e. in schools, playgrounds or other venues.<\/p>\n<p>Adopting precautionary and protection measures, such as educate adults both parents and teachers to learn how to give first aid and apply the Heimlich maneuver, create safe spaces, increase targeted supervision of teachers both in the classroom and during breaks, could lead to a significant decrease in accidents. Concerning health services, Greece needs additional pediatric intensive care units, in order to accommodate proper and immediate treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Find the program of the 6th Series of Lectures, 2020-2021\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/smokefreegreece.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/Program-6th-Series-of-Lecture_IPH_en-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The event\u2019s video (in greek):<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u03a3\u03bf\u03b2\u03b1\u03c1\u03ac \u03b1\u03c4\u03c5\u03c7\u03ae\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03b1 \u03c0\u03b1\u03b9\u03b4\u03b9\u03ce\u03bd &amp; \u03b5\u03c6\u03ae\u03b2\u03c9\u03bd_\u03a3\u03a4 \u039a\u03cd\u03ba\u03bb\u03bf\u03c2 \u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03bb\u03ad\u03be\u03b5\u03c9\u03bd 2020-2021\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3BTPZNOdOQc?start=5&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Institute of Public Health (IPH), The American College of Greece, organized an online event about the education and preventive measures to avoid severe accidents in children and adolescents on Wednesday, January 20, 2021.
